Dean Sudarsky ′16 has found himself as letterer on multiple books recently. Lettering by hand or digitally is a big discussion among cartoonists, Dean excels at both! Dean recently hand lettered Piero by Edmond Baudoin for New York Review Comics, translated from the original French by Matt Madden. Dean worked to imitate the handwriting of Baudoin, mimicking the original script is especially important because it is a memoir about Baudoin’s childhood growing up with his brother Piero.
Dean digitally lettered a translation of Slum Wolf by Tadao Tsuge. Published by New York Review Comics and translated from the original Japanese by Ryan Holmberg, Slum Wolf is a collection of Tsuge’s short stories from the ’60s and ’70s. Dean created the digital font to letter this book.
